...he practically gave up thinking for himself, at least for a while, and his previous ideas didn't exactly get forgotten, but more fell out of use...
He was healthier and better fed than ever before in his life, and had the animals and plants (and let's not forget the voice) for company.
But now, without the alchohol and pornography, his needs and frustrations began to overwhelm him.
One day, whilst wandering through a clearing, he found what appeared to be a garment of some kind.
Picking it up, he could not ignore the smell of feminine sweat coming off it.
His deep desire for company and sex was aroused wildly, and he ran about, looking everywhere for the owner of the garment.
He found nothing and no-one, and was beginning to grow despondant, when he heard a sound behind him.
Spinning round, he was confronted with a number of fierce looking men, pointing crude spears at him (as we've all seen in an untold number of movies! LOL).
To make a short story even shorter (!), after fearing they would kill him, he offered them everything he had, in return for his life.
The men, not understanding his language or gestures, thought he was offering them a gift, and in return let him come to live with them.
The generosity, compassion and friendship these 'primitive' people showed him, broke down once and for all the cynicism in his mind, and finally removed the thorn from his heart.
